Sarah's Dental Thoughts: October 2010
http://smdentalthoughts.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 31, 2010. I enjoyed what we were doing last Wednesday. I have done so many prophylaxis cleanings on patients in the past that it was second nature. I felt very confident in polishing Tori's teeth and making sure that the prophy cup flared underneath her gum line. I didn't do a fluoride varnish treatment on her, but it can't be too hard! Tuesday, October 26, 2010. It's all a blur. I practiced at home and got a decent sized chunk of calculus off of my husband's teeth! Let the calculus fly!

Thursday, April 12, 2012. We enjoyed a fabulous potluck lunch together, instructors and all! It was very enjoyable to sit down a eat a meal together. We had stuffed taco shells (is that what they were called, Kristie? Soup, salad, chips/salsa, and many desserts. Oh, it was so yummy! Thanks everyone for contributing to our feast! It was so good! This other student made the comment "oh a blood clot! I thought "no you dope, that isn't a blood clot. you cut off his tissue! Thursday, April 5, 2012. Water is g...

Sarah's Dental Thoughts: What a day
http://smdentalthoughts.blogspot.com/2012/04/what-day.html
Thursday, April 5, 2012. It was a bizarre day! MeChel is a genius! Water is going everywhere. I put the eye covers back on the spout and I show him how to turn the water on. Water goes spraying everywhere again! I guess there was a little button at the back of the faucet that my patient had pushed when trying to turn on the water. You would think it would have occurred to me to explain to my patient how to turn on the motion sensor faucets. But I didn't. Blond moment #2! I love you anyway!

Sarah's Dental Thoughts: September 2011
http://smdentalthoughts.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 30, 2011. Are coming easier than I expected. I am so grateful for this fact. I thought that getting all of my requirements was going to be an absolute pain in the you know what! Last week I made a valiant attempt at seeing two patients in the morning. One was my wonderful husband who needed a cleaning desperately and the other was my patient needing to get an a transplant list. I got Trevor in and out of there within an hour and 20 minutes. Feeling good! Thursday, September 15, 2011.

Tuesday, April 10, 2012. Ten Days Until Graduation! I am super excited right now! I got all my requirements done today, I had a fun lunch with my girls, I saw fun patients today and graduation is only ten days away! It sure did come fast! I was sitting in Pod wrap today thinking, “I don’t have anything else clinic wise to stress about! 8221; It is such a great feeling to know that I am almost done with school. I will miss my friends, teachers and some patients, but I am super happy to be done!

http://smdentalthoughts.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 29, 2010. Thanks for being patient with me today as I poked a proded your teeth. You were so good about letting me do what I needed to without any complaints. I know that you don't really like to have me instruct you on how to take care of your teeth, but you took it like a champ! I really felt like I am starting to understand the full flow of how clinic is to work. I almost and did make some stupid mistakes. I almost forgot to put the safety glasses on my patient (critical! I don't get ...

Sarah's Dental Thoughts: March 2011
http://smdentalthoughts.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 23, 2011. My first class III. I had no idea how hard a class III was going to be. I convinced my patient to have x-rays taken today since it had been a year. He seemed reluctant at first, but I turned on the persuasion and he consented. I am up to 9 sets of bitewing x-rays! Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Trying to do too much. Instead of placing the drum on L1 I placed it on L2. I won't be making that mistake again. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My first class III. Trying to do too much.
